I thought that I found more Barbados coins but a quick search of my recent records proved otherwise. This is only the second coin from Barbados I found since starting this blog. I guess in my mind I group all the Caribbean coins together.
Still none of these coins are rare but the grouping was odd. I got them in change from the same place, from a person who knew I collected and graciously set them aside.
Here are the stats for this...

ReplyDeleteAbout $4.00 in very-fine.
$15.00 in choice-crisp-uncirculated.
Is one still able to trade them for silver?
ReplyDeleteNo, 1965 was the last year that trade was possible.
I'm curious of the value of this nickel I have macro shot of the front and back attached. I want to believe it is a crazy mint error, but I'm not an expert.

Thanks!

ReplyDeleteThe shots are not that clear but it looks like damage, no extra value.
That said there is a small chance it is a lamination error but that can only be determined in hand by an expert, but would bring little extra value if it's an error.

ReplyDeleteIt's a modern day replica coin of an ancient Roman coin.
Here is some info from http://www.forumancientcoins.com/fakes/displayimage.php?pos=-831
Judaean, Bar Kochba, bronze, fantasy replicas
Judaean Bar Kochba bronze, roughly 3/4 inch in diameter.
Stylistically, a bit strange, but the dead giveaway that this is not a true ancient coin is in the lettering. This lettering is similar to modern Hebrew, and is nothing like the archaic style of Hebrew used on the real coins. Comes in dark reddish "bronze" and brighter brassy "orichalcum". Both from the same dies or from copies of the same dies.
anything special for a barbados 1979 25 cent?
ReplyDeletebarbados 1979 25 cent about $0.20
